Weather Puzzle

5. A horizontal wind resultant of the balance of the Coriolis acceleration and the horizontal pressure force.
7. Instrument designed to measure the speed of the wind.
9. Net horizontal inflow of air into a layer. If at the surface, vertical motion results. Associated with low pressure systems.
10. A weather term implying no precipitation and no extreme conditions of clouds, visibility or wind.
11. A period of moisture deficiency, extensive in space and time.
12. The chance that a prescribed event will occur.
14. Of, pertaining to, or caused by mountains.
15. Any or all the forms of water particles, liquid or solid, that fall from the atmosphere and reach the ground.

1. The pressure exerted by the air as a result of gravity. It is measured by the barometer, and expressed in millibars or inches of mercury.
2. An instrument that records temperature and relative humidity as a function of time.
3. The process by which electromagnetic radiation is propagated through free space.
4. An instrument used for measuring the water vapor content of the air.
6. The physical process by which a vapor becomes a liquid.
8. closed circulation of the atmosphere, of relative high pressure. (clockwise flow in the northern hemisphere).
13. A homogenous mass of air, the properties of which can be identified as having been established while the air was situated over a particular region of the earth's surface.
